Yes,i also saw his post. However when i made an inquiry at the same workshop, they are no longer selling.
In fact, i ask around a lot of spare parts dealer, no one is selling at all.
One dealer told me design failure for Honda City TMO (this dealer is selling VR Valde absorber)

I also made an inquiry with the authorized dealer (hmt.com.my), the price is cheaper around RM160/pc.

Summoning kucingfight for his feedback on Sachs absorber
*
if i can recall, sachs is slightly stiffer (thus better handling quality)
i'm not really a car enthusiast, can't give u a better comparison in layman's term
what i noticed, if car is really full load (5adults + full trunk) , when going over bumps will have 'thuddd' sound

not sure if it's bcoz of absorber (or by default TMO is always on the lower side @ full load)

my next change would be proride

lol dang, yes that's mine. i was assuming the boot release doesn't work all time. have to check it out when back home lol

Mine too isn't cold especially on a hot afternoon. It is adequate but not as cold as night.

for the past few years, even default 1/4 knob setting is already cold (even on very hot days) . but lately it's defintely doesnt feel that way, strange thing is that, when travel on high speed (highways), it becomes cold again (even w/ mist coming out) .

Yeah. So i just spray to whatever i could from below the H logo. And from the small gap when open the hood. The radiator is behind condenser so i try not to spray on the radiator directly.

Once done let it sit for a while and rinse of with water using same method

hi got some pics to show? a bit noobie on this

Not sure why, couldnt find any stones. Probably had some weak point from rear ended 2yrs ago
Quoted from dr Windscreen rm430 (with installation) .. Trying to skimp expenses past few months and this happens.. bangwall.gif

Hantuk over normal bumps actually means your rear shocks kong already.

Another way is to change the rear rubber bushing to a thicker 1... You can refer to Post #4066 for image example.

thanks all for the advise
ya my absorber is around 4yr old.
had this issue since getting new car since.

so i changed absorbers (excel g)+ relative bushings etc
items bought from shopee, think cost was around 800rm
installed tru my technician's part time garage

man, old absorbers were gone. cannot load up back
followed a forumer sharing here, increasing height of rear spring damper

as u can see, front top mounting, bump stop (after 5years, excluding 1yr MCO)

This morning, I inspected the engine bay to check the overall condition of the engine.

Found that the V-Tec solenoid starting to have small leak. There are hints of oil stains around the solenoid.

Guess I'll need to go to Vmag to replace it next week.

Can share some pics what to look for?

After changing recently to excel g and adding thicker rear damper, it feels nice to drive around.most importantly rear doesn't sag down like before
